Make Your Videos Stand Out

Video production equipment comes in plenty of varieties, and no matter how you like to put your movies together, it all starts with the footage. Whether that means using the original action cameras from GoPro or a more traditional video recorder like one of Zoom's cameras, it's all good - it just comes down to your personal preferences, how you like to work, and of course, the conditions you'll be subjecting your video recorders to along the way.

Add an interface and your favorite image processing and photo editing software, and you'll have everything you need to make professional-quality video ready for sharing online and in-person. Modern cameras and accessories deliver video and audio processing performance that would have been impossible in such a compact package even a decade ago, which means it's easier than ever to produce high-quality footage. And with added features like comfort noise filtering and image stabilization, they're more forgiving as well.

Here are some of the highlights of what today's video production equipment can offer:

GPS LocatorNeed to know exactly where you captured that amazing wilderness shot? No sweat - GPS is a common feature on an action camera like a GoPro, so you'll be able to track the video in more ways than one. And that's great news if your film and photo capturing tends to take you off the beaten path.

Voice ControlWe've only got two hands, and depending on what you're recording, there's every chance that yours could be busy - too busy to push buttons on a camera. This is when accessories like the GoPro Remo come in handy: it's a waterproof, voice-activated remote for your camera. Of course, there's also the option of picking up a model that comes with voice control right out of the box, too!

Wi-Fi ControlIf you're using your camera closer to home and you want to automate it without having to run cables or fiddle with fussy onboard menus, Wi-Fi control or Bluetooth connection can be a real life-saver. No matter which style of wireless connection suits your needs or your camera, it's the perfect way to connect it to a smartphone or tablet app, so you can accomplish more work with fewer wires in the way.
